Hamirpur, February 18

As many as 2,000 women would be trained through skill development programmes in the district, said Naveen Sharma, state coordinator, Skill Development Corporation, here today. He said the training would be given free of cost.

Sharma said women would be trained in skills such as mushroom production, handloom and handicraft, beautician training, making of pickle and jams. He said the training would be provided on the premises of the Him Aanchal Education and Welfare Society here. He urged the women to participate in the training programmes as it would not only provide them knowledge but also improve their income.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
